What are you trying to teach your dog to do? Email me with your training skills you want to teach. kacey21x21@yahoo.com As for him jumping tell him to "Get down!" Push him down and hold his back to make sure he stays, and when he does reward him with treats or affection. Also say "Good boy."=D

The answer to ALL dog training issues is obedience training. Obedience classes are available through local kennel clubs. They have two additional benefits. First, they will introduce you to people in the community who can help you with all issues regarding puppy care, and second, they provide you and your dog with great opportunities for socialization and new friends. If you have never taken a dog to obedience training,,you have no idea what you are missing. You and your dog will be much happeir for it, and you can be very proud of your dog when he gets his canine good citizen award. There is no better way to solve the problems you are having!

All my 3 dogs when they were young they would always get excited and jump on me too. I found that this technique has never failed me. When you know your dog is about to jump on you, just raise your knee. Stay calm too..any type of excitement, the dog is going to think it's a game. Your not really kneeing the dog, and your not pushing your leg into the dog. But when the dog jumps and you block the dog with your knee, the dog will fall back. After a few times..the dog is not going to like making itself fall so they stay on the ground. Try it..it's worked for me.

I have an American Pitbull Terrier and my boyfriend and I trained him by ourselves.When he was a little puppy, he liked to jump on people to greet them. Hes now 1 1/2 and will sit, stay, get down and lay on command. The key, is to be consistant!! You also have to be firm and really patient. For consistancy, when you start to train him to do something, keep at it and don't try to teach him too many things at once because he will get confused. Be firm with him, let him know that you are serious and your not trying to play with him. And it can take a while for him to catch on to something, so be very patient and dont get mad because they can sense when your mad. Another big thing, is ALWAYS reward him AND praise him. If u only give him a treat when he does something, he's going to expect a treat everytime he sits or lays. With my pitbull, he praised him and gave him treats but after awhile, he just praised him and he loves it. Just clap, pet him, gie him hugs and let him know he was a good boy!!.Its alot of work but its very rewarding int the end. And how old is your dog and what kind of dog is it??-I hope that helped and Good Luck. If u have any more questions, feel free to message me.
